- On the 2004 episode, magician Scott Penrose performed a number of illusions on celebrity assistants during a special "All-star magic show". These included the levitation and disappearance of actress Debra Stephenson, the "Zig Zag Girl", performed on singer Katie Melua, the Guillotine, performed on actress Amanda Holden, and the "Clearly Impossible" sawing in half of singer Shania Twain.
- During the 2005 episode, the illusion performed by magician Scott Penrose was a UK premiere of the newest version of the classic Sawing a Woman in Half, called "The Impossible Sawing". In this illusion, Penrose used a large circular saw to cut host Fearne Cotton in half, and then pulled her halves apart, without any box covering her.
